Research

VPCRAC research projects investigate effective and economical alternative materials for the control of vertebrate pests. We solicit and consider research proposals for alternative humane methods of control and continue the state's current vertebrate pest control product registrations until such time as effective alternative products are available.

VPCRAC funds research for the development of scientific data required to maintain registrations and cooperates with US Department of Agriculture in funding research programs to maintain, develop, and register vertebrate pest control materials used in California.
